-
Light: Provide bright, indirect light for optimal pink variegation development. Insufficient light reduces pink coloration, while too much direct sun can scorch the delicate variegated areas and fade the pink tones.
-
Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 18-26°C (65-80°F) for best growth and variegation stability. Protect from cold drafts, air conditioning vents, and sudden temperature fluctuations which can cause variegation loss.
-
Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels of 50-70%. Higher humidity promotes healthier variegated leaves and prevents browning of pink sections. Use a humidifier, pebble tray, or group with other tropical plants.
-
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged as variegated plants are more susceptible to root rot. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring excellent drainage and reducing frequency during winter months.
Additional Notes:
Features heart-shaped leaves with spectacular bubblegum pink variegation contrasting against deep green base color. The striking burgundy to dark red stems and petioles enhance the dramatic color palette, creating an exceptional specimen that's truly unique in the plant world.
